I’ve never been there, but Dorothea of Caveat Lector recently posted a rave about the British Library: http://cavlec.yarinareth.net/archives/2006/12/13/london-the-beginning/

Oh, you’re already gone. No stress, life is long! Looking forward to Boston in March!

I enjoyed seeing the Rosetta Stone, something that has always held my facination since I was a kid and first read about it.

Good to meet you Thursday/Friday – had a great time at the workshop and left feeling good about myself and my skills as I had hoped…

Hope you had a good time in London, apart from it being rather windy there weather wasn’t SOO bad!!!!!

Thanks again

They have the excellent GameOn exhibition on at the moment charting the history of Video Games back to the 60s. Lots of hands on free play exhibits on some legendary games and hardware. Geek heaven! Oh and its only £8.50 entrance.

I live in Vauxhall, and my flatmate just got a Wii. Come over! We’ll have a blast.

There are loads of restaurants, bars and nightclubs with people in their mid twenties and up. A very nice place to party!

Great voice.

The slides are amazing fun! I’ve not tried it personally, but the suggestion of the London Eye is a also good one. It’s only a short bus ride away from Tate Modern

Mind you, tonight is the traditional Maritime Museum xmas ball in the Queen’s House, so tomorrow is probably the traditional xmas hangover in my living room.
